[QUOTE="Crothian, post: 6423219, member: 232"] If the player choose to have a character with a 4 wisdom and is not mad about it then there is no problem. If the player is frustrated by the 4 wisdom and failing saves then we talk about what the player wants to do out of game. There are a lot of options and scrapping the campaign setting is never one of them. Some players don't mind having characters with weakness and they don't mind failing rolls. Part of our fun is not just having our characters succeed but watching and making sure the other people at the table are having fun. It does not sound like you are one of them though. In that case the player certainly has the option of coming in as a new character. They don't matter as much as the decisions that happen out side of combat. Before the PCs get into a combat situation they have made all kinds of choices that include research, scouting, and just avoiding the fight. If a player for any reason is spending time playing on their phone I call them on it. It's rude to the table to do that and people who would prefer to play on their phone don't need to be at the D&D table. [/QUOTE]
